Transparency was just expanded at the Oklahoma Broadband Office where leaders say since their grant programs are funded with taxpayer dollars, Oklahomans should be kept fully informed on how the money is being spent.

That is why the Broadband Office has launched the OBO Broadband Dashboard.
Embedded on the agency’s website at broadband.ok.gov, the dashboard provides top line data on the progress of broadband expansion and allows viewers to follow each project, beginning with the permitting and engineering phases and ending with service going live for new customers.

Information is available by awarded grant program, technology used, project status, and can be viewed by county, congressional, state house and state senate districts. The pulldown arrows in the upper right of the map allow for search by addresses and other options. A video tutorial can be viewed here.

The dashboard will be kept up to date and can be accessed at this link.
